#114 Mauzac

Mauzac from southwest France. It is one of the seven permitted varietals in Bordeaux. This wine is the color of apple cider, or more vinuously (to create a word) its neighbor Armagnac.

It is a sweet wine that I dare say tastes to me a bit like a blend of the aforementioned apple cider and Armagnac. It leans toward being a desert wine but doesn't get that syrupy. I think this is a wonderful wine and for $15 it is clearly worth a try.
